2K Games announced today the first downloadable content for BioShock®2, enhancing the single and multiplayer experiences by adding more glimpses into the award-winning world of Rapture.

The downloadable content (DLC) will begin with the Sinclair Solutions Test Pack, available this March from PlayStation®Network. Future expansions into the world of BioShock 2 are slated to arrive over the coming months and will continue to expand on the stories of the denizens of Rapture.

"The fans who waited in the snow, rain and cold for the midnight launch of BioShock 2 have spoken and their message is that Rapture still has many fascinating stories to tell," said Christoph Hartmann, President of 2K Games. "Downloadable content is a key part of our efforts to continue to entice the fans that have made 2K a household name - we intend to deliver single and multiplayer content that respects and expands upon one of the greatest fictional worlds ever created."

Sinclair Solutions Test Pack, the first of several planned downloadable packages, contains a number of customisation features that will allow players to further their character's development in BioShock 2's multiplayer modes and provide a deeper multiplayer experience. The pack includes:

Rank Increase to level 50 with Rank Rewards

New playable characters Louie McGraff and Oscar Calraca

20 new trials*

A third weapon upgrade for each weapon

Five additional masks*

* Some items are only available after a player achieves a rank of 41 or higher.

In the coming months, 2K Games will also be publishing downloadable extensions of the single player experience that provide new insight into the world of Rapture. These packages will include more narrative, new tools and new challenges that extend the lore and fiction of the failed Utopia under the sea.
